This magical, one-of-a-kind bookstore has moved to 108 Cherry Street (in Pioneer Square) and it is even more beautiful than before!! Incredible selection of poetry books—new, used, and rare—in the historic Good Arts building. Unique, must-visit shop for travelers coming through Seattle and a beloved hub for poets and poetry lovers worldwide! 💖💞💘

The new location is 108 Cherry Street in Pioneer Square. It’s a beautiful old building walking distance from the ferry terminal and Pike Place Market.

Inspiring, cozy space with amazing titles. This right address is 108 Cherry St, Seattle, WA 98104 in Pioneer Square, not Wallingford.

Adorable bookstore and the women running it was very friendly and even gave suggestions.

Doreen Farrar

This is the smallest bookstore I've ever seen, but it's also one of the coolest. Their books are all books of poetry, and the small size of the space somehow adds to the intimate atmosphere. The staff members we've met have all been very knowledgeable and helpful. We're looking forward to our next visit.

The staff is really sweet! Really helpful with finding specific titles! All the books are organized and everything is neat. I visited for the first time because I live pretty far and I'm most definitely coming back! I'm kind of upset I didn't take a trip down there sooner hahaha. They also do a great job of informing you on upcoming events for Poetry in Seattle.

A wonderful, peaceful bookstore with an amazing selection. Exclusively deals in poetry, and I love them for it. Their inventory is varied and I always come away with at least three books. Their staff are all wonderful as well, and it's worth asking for recommendations!

David Toms

It's rare to find a poetry-only bookshop and this one is an absolute gem. I came away with some really wonderful and rare books of poetry from here. I could have spent all day in there to be quite honest. The staff were friendly, genuine and interested and knowledgeable. If you're serious about poetry, you need to spend some time in here. Heaven!

Janice Wright

I LOVE this poetry bookshop. They really know their stuff, and they can bring in anything they might be missing, though its hard to imagine you won't find something in their thousands of books. They have some seating and you are more than welcome to sit down and read for a while. Such a local treasure!

Rachel Edelman

The best bookstore for poetry I know. Billie and her staff are incredibly knowledgeable and kind readers, eager to help newcomers and veterans alike to find a book they will love. I particularly love their selection of poetry in translation and their featured artist wall, showing the potential for hybridity in poetic practice.

Mehmet Vurkaç

How many bookstores can you walk into (without realizing it was specifically for poetry, since the sign was obscured by a tree), ask for Portuguese poetry translation (nonfiction as well as poetry) and be provided with multiple options? I then asked about Turkish poetry and they had several examples, classic and contemporary. That's pretty impressive.

Corey Thrasher

Lovingly managed by two verse enthusiasts, this rare gem of a bookshop is dedicated exclusively to poetry and offers thousands of titles. I've spent a good hour browsing just one of the walls in this modified shotgun bungalow. Check their Web site for upcoming events, including readings and book signings.

Victor Chudnovsky

Really attractive and comfortable independent poetry store. The owners are very friendly and helpful, and more than happy to suggest works of interest. They can also special-order any book not in stock.
